Lin is not the kind of fool who just stared blankly, but she deliberately ignored it.

As long as you don't think about it, it won't happen.

"You are the same as the previous subjects, you will die."

"……I know."

Sure enough, even if I escape, even if most people don't care, there will be kind and gentle people who will grab my sleeves and stop me from going forward without turning back.

"I know."

At that time, Lin smiled, and there was misty mist in her eyes.

She stopped blushing, looked into the boy's eyes, and pretended to smile easily.

"This is my grandfather's long-cherished wish. I know that the result of the experiment will not change because of my identity, but even if there is only a one in ten thousand chance, I am willing to try it."

"Besides, it's not just me, the previous Valkyrie thought so too... As long as you can release the power of gems, you will have the power to fight against Honkai, and you will be able to sacrifice less and laugh more."

"Didn't you say that I am a hero? Isn't this in line with the scene of a hero's dedication?"

There was light in Lin's eyes, the boy was silent for a long time, then he spoke slowly.

"Even if it's pointless?"

"Even if it doesn't make sense."

It's not meaningless, even if it just proves the infeasibility of the experiment, that's the meaning.

"Even if it is forgotten?"

"I'm not forgotten, I know Grandpa loves me, and..."

Didn't you find me?

In the separated world, Lin smiled, her face flushed slightly.

At the gate of heaven, the boy uncovered the riddle that was riddled with holes, revealing the deep darkness.

It's just that the girl had already discovered that she forced herself to fill in the disguise, then turned around and jumped down.

"Will I ever see you again?"

What the Valkyries need is not an external force to change their destiny, but a little bit of concern.

……

"The experiment begins, and subject 526 is ready."

Unknowingly, only the cold laboratory fell silent.

Lin raised her head and found that the researchers who were supposed to be surrounding her grandfather turned around another man.

It was a blond young man, younger than most of the researchers present.

He was wearing a gorgeous purple robe, standing out from a group of white coats, with the temperament of a superior.

Lin knew who it was. He was the Bishop of Destiny—Otto Apocalypse.

However, it was just a simple experiment, why did His Excellency Bishop come?

As if barely aware of her gaze, Otto and Lin exchanged glances, revealing a bright and friendly smile.

"!"

A bone-chilling chill rushed from the spine to the whole body. For some reason, Lin couldn't feel the warmth of the warm smile she had seen before.

She turned her head away from the sight.

She subconsciously looked for the figure of her grandfather, but found that he only left her a back, as if he didn't want to see her.

She turned her head again, looking for another figure, but unfortunately.

"do not have it……"

Lin closed her eyes.

The mechanical arm started to run, and the warm liquid seemed to be stained with the coldness of the machine. The magnificent purple gem was like the deadliest poison at this moment.

In the silent silence, as the mechanical arm advanced, the researchers' unchanging eyes became extremely frenzied.

Their eyes were wide open, and their hands holding the documents and data were constantly exerting force, and beads of sweat ooze from their palms.

--coming!

"It seems that the experiment is going well, Doctor."

Some lazy voices interrupted this moment, and the researchers clenched their fists expressionlessly, but were unable to do anything.

Because the owner of this voice is Otto, Otto Apocalypse.

"Don't you look at your own granddaughter? The look in her eyes before was very interesting."

Maggie's back trembled, and he turned around. There were countless bloodshot eyes in his wide-open eyes, and his complexion seemed haggard and older.

He looked at his granddaughter, lying on the transparent glass in a disregard of her image, with the pattern of her index finger printed on it.

At this moment, the worry in his eyes could not be hidden.

His chapped lips opened and closed several times, but no sound came out.

"Unexpectedly, you have this side, Dr. Mackey."

Otto put his arms around his chest and spoke teasingly.

"You seem a lot more nervous than usual, except you're sweating a lot."

"I remember that in the experiment a month ago, the five Valkyries who participated in the experiment all died, but you didn't shed a drop of sweat, and you desperately asked for more experimental subjects."

Markey didn't respond, but silently clenched his fists, leaving sweat stains on the glass.

"By the way, I remembered, today's experimental subject is your granddaughter, right?"

Otto snapped his fingers, "suddenly realized" said.

"What a kind Valkyrie, just tell her that participating in the experiment will allow us to gain the power to fight against the Houkai and protect human beings, so just obediently..."

"Don't say it anymore!!"

An abrupt roar erupted from Dr. Mackey's mouth. He lowered his head and closed his eyes tightly.

"Grandpa, from today onwards, I will be a Valkyrie!"

"I also want to work hard to protect human beings just like my grandfather."

That was Lynn's smile in memory, and Markey was proud of it.

But Lin, I'm sorry, Grandpa lied to you.

Grandpa has never worked hard to protect mankind. Grandpa is just a mad scientist, an executioner who can push his granddaughter to the gallows... just.

"Is this...retribution?"

Otto let out a sneer, human beings are like this, in order to satisfy their own desires, they will have two faces.

If it wasn't his granddaughter who participated in the experiment, Dr. Mackey would still be the same as before, even the crocodile tears would not be shed.

"Continue to experiment."

The experiment of transplanting the Tranquil Gem continued, and the magnificent gem was embedded in Lin's chest, as if a root protruded from it, sticking firmly to it.

Lin's delicate face wrinkled slightly, and she felt a burst of pain in her chest.

However, she's a Valkyrie, so it's bearable.

"Inject the Houkai energy, and the Tranquility Gem begins to fuse."

The researchers operated calmly, staring at the reflective data instruments.

"Well……"

The body became a little hot, and with the infusion of Houkai energy, purple circuit-like lines began to spread from the tranquil gem on the chest, which was the trace of Houkai erosion.

"what--"

Lin couldn't help screaming, but soon, the faint voice disappeared into the icy liquid.

Otto stared at the red stigmata quietly appearing on Lin's chest, and clenched his hands unconsciously.

Could it be that a miracle happened and the experiment was about to succeed.

"The fusion rate is 5.3%, 7.2%... 10.4%."

The Gem of Tranquility, in the second Honkai, one of several powers that Honkai bestowed on the second Herrscher Sirin, possessing the ability to create and wither.

The Second Herrscher had used this to revive several of her companions, so Otto also wanted to obtain this power... This was one of his plans to revive Karen.

The researchers naturally noticed Lin's mutation, and their voices unconsciously carried a bit of fanaticism.

So that no one noticed the arrival of the unexpected guest.

As the fusion rate steadily increased, Otto couldn't help becoming serious, staring at the virtual screen without blinking.

The same is true for Maggie, raising his head, with a hint of hope in his cloudy eyes.

Error! Error!

"There was an error in the fusion, the experimental body couldn't bear the Houkai energy, and the body tissue began to collapse!"

A red alarm sounded, and the researcher hurriedly reported the situation, operating on the control instrument with both hands, trying to save the result.

"Sure enough, it's still like this."

Otto sighed lightly, with no concealment of disappointment in his eyes.

Caracalla -

With the sound of glass shattering, cracks appeared in the huge glass jar.

"Ah-ah!!"

"Lin!"

The fragments splashed, and with the pouring of liquid, Lin slipped out of the experimental tank.

The sharp fragments scratched her skin, and bright red blood flowed from it.

Lynn couldn't help screaming, not because of these small wounds, but something more painful.

Bones, flesh and nerves seemed to be stripped and crushed at this moment. Lin could not bear the pain.

She staggered to her feet, then fell down again.

A thin black mist spread from Lin's chest, and the pitch-black ash fell on the ground, silently and silently.

It seemed that a part of her body was missing, and she was a little light. Lin couldn't help but turn her head, but saw that her white thighs had turned into black ash little by little.

"My leg! How did my leg disappear, it hurts, it hurts!"

The pupils trembled uncontrollably, and Lin let out a cry of terror.

Even with glass protection, the researchers couldn't help but take a step back, showing panic and disappointment.

This is not the first time they have seen this thing. Every time the experiment fails, they will see it once. Naturally, they also know what the black mist that is enough to take their lives is.

"This is the black mist formed by Houkai energy. As long as it is touched, the cells can quickly age and then turn into ashes."

Otto rubbed his chin, analyzing on his own as if he didn't see Lin's tragic situation.

And Maggie, at this moment, had already knelt on the ground, weeping silently.

He knew that his granddaughter would never come back.

"This kind of ability, touching Heiyuan Baihua, is indeed the ability of the Herrscher of Death, but it's a pity..."

The black ashes spread silently, and the Serenity Gem eroded its current host, dragging her into the fly ash bit by bit.

Lin's legs had disappeared. Enduring great pain, she raised her head and saw her grandpa kneeling on the ground.

"grandfather……"

As if hearing Lin's soft voice, Maggie raised her head, and in a blur, saw Lin's eyes full of longing and hope.

It was the longing for life, the hope that he could save her... However, he did not blame himself.

"Lin!"

Markey finally couldn't bear it anymore, and wanted to open the glass door, even if he would die, it didn't matter, he wanted to hug his granddaughter.
